Sony giving away another 10,000 free PS3s

SYDNEY, NSW: Sony Australia has this morning announced an extension of its twice-successful free-PS3 promotion, with the company releasing a further 10,000 free PlayStation 3s with the purchase of selected Bravia LCD TVs.

Since first launching this promotion in July 2008, Sony has reported strong sales of its Bravia models, and a strong connection with consumers looking to acquire a TV and a home entertainment solution at the same time.

As part of this promotion, which runs concurrently with Sony’s 3-year warranty offer, Sony deputy general manager of consumer products marketing, Toby Barbour, is promising consumers they will receive their PS3 before Christmas, as long as the purchase is validated before 1 December 2009.

“It can be hard to choose the perfect gift at Christmas time, particularly something that the whole family will enjoy. While high definition TVs are a significant purchase at any time of year, they are expected to be the Christmas present of choice for many households this year; with a combination of appealing prices, latest technologies, as well as fantastic bonus offers all available. People are looking for value for money, quality purchases in light of a year of tough financial circumstances,” Barbour said.

Sony is also giving away Blu-ray movies and games at the moment. Interest parties are directed to follow Sony on Twitter or sign up to Sony Australia’s Facebook page.

Here following are the qualifying Bravia LCD TVs in this promotion. The PlayStation 3 is RRP $499.
